I'm in total SHOCK. Waterford is like gold in my family. Not exactly revered, but cherished and passed down from mothers to daughters for generations. I treasure mine and though my grandmother and great grandmother are long gone, my Waterford reminds me of them, as there was always a Waterford candy dish on the coffee table and stemware on the table when we visited them.
What does this mean? Are we so Pottery Barn-ized now that we don't appreciate this wonderful crystal? Are engaged couples so eager to use the registry gun at Crate & Barrel that they forgo registering for china and crystal?
I'm so sad. The major of Waterford called the news "a national disaster". It could also be seen as tragic from an arts standpoint...at least that's how I see it.
Sorry if I seem overly dramatic. I'm kind of shocked right now.
Does anyone know what this means? The news stories I've seen have basically said "it's over". Will Waterford become more expensive? More rare?
